One of the main components of all home insurance policies is dwelling coverage. This provides protection for the physical structure of your home, including its walls, floors, and attached structures, such as garages or decks. Most home insurance policies also include personal property coverage. This means that with a home insurance policy, your personal belongings, like furniture, electronics, clothing, and appliances, are covered whether they are destroyed, damaged, or stolen.

Additionally, home insurance policies come with liability protection. Accidents happen, and if someone sustains injuries on your property or you accidentally damage someone else’s property, liability coverage can help cover legal expenses and medical bills.

Our dedicated team of insurance professionals is committed to helping you find the best possible coverage for your home at the best possible price. To explore home insurance policy options or learn more about our agency, reach out to us today.

FAQs About Home Insurance

Home insurance helps protect your property, belongings, and liability exposure. Whether you’re a first-time homeowner or reviewing your existing coverage, understanding your options can give you peace of mind. Below, we answer key questions about home insurance policies and coverage.

Hidden

What does a standard home insurance policy cover?

Most home insurance policies include dwelling coverage (structure), personal property coverage (belongings), liability protection, and additional living expenses if you’re temporarily displaced due to a covered event. Optional add-ons may include flood or earthquake insurance.

Is home insurance required?

While it’s not legally required, most mortgage lenders require homeowners to maintain insurance as part of the loan agreement. Even if you’ve paid off your home, it’s still wise to have coverage to protect your investment.

How is the cost of home insurance determined?

Premiums are based on factors such as the home’s age and condition, location, replacement cost, claim history, and the selected coverage options. Discounts may apply for bundled policies, security systems, or a claims-free record.

What’s the difference between replacement cost and actual cash value?

Replacement cost covers the full expense of repairing or replacing damaged items, excluding depreciation. Actual cash value takes depreciation into account, meaning you’ll receive less for older belongings. We can help you choose the right option for your budget and needs.

Do I need home insurance if I rent out my property?

Yes. If you rent out your home, you’ll need a landlord insurance policy, which includes property protection and liability coverage tailored to rental situations. Standard home insurance may not be applicable in these cases, so it’s essential to adjust accordingly.
